# ReflectionProperty::getValue

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

ReflectionProperty::getValue — Gets value

### Beschreibung

public ReflectionProperty::getValue(?object `$object` = `null`): mixed

Gets the property's value.

### Parameter-Liste

`object`

  If the property is non-static an object must be provided to fetch the property from. If you want to fetch the default property without providing an object use ReflectionClass::getDefaultProperties() instead.

### Rückgabewerte

The current value of the property.

### Changelog

Version | Beschreibung
--- | ---
8.1.0 | Private and protected properties can be accessed by ReflectionProperty::getValue() right away. Previously, they needed to be made accessible by calling ReflectionProperty::setAccessible(); otherwise a ReflectionException was thrown.
8.0.0 | `object` is nullable now.

### Beispiele

Beispiel #1 ReflectionProperty::getValue() example

`<?php
class Foo {
public static $staticProperty = 'foobar';
public $property = 'barfoo';
protected $privateProperty = 'foofoo';
}
$reflectionClass = new ReflectionClass('Foo');
var_dump($reflectionClass->getProperty('staticProperty')->getValue());
var_dump($reflectionClass->getProperty('property')->getValue(new Foo));
$reflectionProperty = $reflectionClass->getProperty('privateProperty');
$reflectionProperty->setAccessible(true); // only required prior to PHP 8.1.0
var_dump($reflectionProperty->getValue(new Foo));
?>`

Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende Ausgabe:

    string(6) "foobar"
    string(6) "barfoo"
    string(6) "foofoo"
